Programs presented by Lauren Howes (The Images Festival - Toronto), Scott Miller Berri and Pablo de Ocampoand (Canadian Filmmakers Distribution Centre).
This program is a collection of five film and video piecesby francophone Canadian artists, both recent works and gems from the past. The artists in this program explore the natural/constructed landscape and the formal properties of the medium itself. Joanna Empain’s Mouvances wanders over a landscape as the scenery alternates and metamorphoses. Imprint by Louise Bourque is a study of home and memory drawn from old home movie footage. Shot in a tunnel in Québec City, Alexandre Larose’s 930 juxtaposes views of both ends of the tunnel to present a passage from light to dark and vice versa. Vertige by Isabelle Hayeur is a study of the deserted landscape of an abandoned asbestos quarry. Closing the program is Marie-France Giraudon’s Pharos, an homage to light houses and the terrain they inhabit.

The second program in this series is a performance based media work by Montréal-based electronic music artist Alain Thibault and new media artist Matthew Biederman working as the duo Ray_xxxx. Their project Pulse is an audio video performance based around the framework of electronic pulsation iterated through time. This abstract and formal new media performance creates a temporal “object” which isn’t solely aural or visual but a new form of generative performance. Pulse seeks to produce a series of psychological states in which the witness/viewer can build and shape their own narrative based on the a/v stimuli.
